Thrilled to share that I got to envision a brand new story for STAR WARS for the animated anthology Visions volume 2. The series premieres on May 4th on Disney+. Representing India among these shorts is an incredible responsibility and honor. Intertwining our culture in the Star Wars universe was a blast and I hope a new generation of Indian Star Wars fans rises soon.
Big shout to the stellar team at the 88 Pictures for raising the Indian animation’s bar so high and quite literally shooting for the stars. Thanks to Lucas Films for shepherding us through this beautiful journey.
May the 4th be with you. -
